Customer Reviews Vans Old Skool Stackform

Love these shoes. So cute and stylish but still super chill. Love the earthy color. But, I noticed that these shoes are about a half size bigger than my other vans, so I ended up having to exchange for a smaller size than normal. If you're unsure, maybe go to the store to try on a pair of platforms. Otherwise, love them!

I absolutely love vans platform shoes normally. However, these are higher than the previous style and they feel much heavier and not comfortable at all. Fit is good. Just heavy and clunky. Vans, please bring back the original platforms. Unfortunately, I just started wearing them after putting them in my closet 6 months ago and it's too late to return.

I work retail and I need comfortable shoes. These are great because they make me taller, don't have a screaming logo, and don't look super athletic. Problem is that within a few weeks of continuous use, without fail, the sole starts coming undone from the upper. The sole is super thick, so it's obviously nowhere near as flexible as a fabric upper. Vans needs to stitch the sole to the upper for this specific model, because the glue doesn't work the way it would for the regular model. I would happily pay 5-10$ more if the sole were stitched if it meant that they wouldn't start falling apart within three weeks. Also they need to come out with a wide fit version because they run very narrow.

I apologize, I wrote a negative review earlier today but when I got home I realized the shoes did not come fully laced; the last hole was not laced. Once I laced them the heels were much tighter. Not perfect but not warranting the review I had left. Please remove it.

I love the look of these platforms! The flowers are the perfect extra touch without being over the top. BUT, as a lifetime Vans wearer, I have owned at least 50 pairs of Vans and they are ALL size 6.5. I ordered my normal size and my heel pops out as I walk in these. Unfortunately, the next size down was sold out and I love these too much to return so I added some heel inserts to the inside of the shoe and they are now wearable.

The Olive looks more like a khaki brown. Ugly. Even the picture on the box doesn't match the shade of the shoe. Looks way greener online. Disappointed.

Obsessed with this style and Vans in genera, but this green is called Olive and appears to be a brighter, mint green. In person it's definitely like a khaki, more neutral tan/green color. Will be keeping them because I like the style, but I am disappointed they aren't the color depicted on the website. Would be a lot cuter if they were the lighter mint green.

This is the only uncomfortable pair of Vans shows I have ever owned. They are very, very stiff so the heels rub terribly when walking. If I could do it over I would buy the regular profile band old school and NOT buy the platforms.

I didn't like that the fact the sneakers wasn't laced up. I was very surprised and disappointed

So cute but hard as a rock! Feels like you are walking on a hard surface all day. I gave them away. I love style but also must have comfort too. So disappointed.

Normally I love vans. These are super cute but have 2 issues I don't have with my other vans. First the tongue slips down some causing some discomfort. But the big issue is the top of the shoe above the top eyelets is like sharp. It hurts the top of my foot. It's not rounded in the least. I'm not sure if I got a defective pair or what but I can't wear them for long periods like my other vans

Love the shoes especially the platform since I am short. They are more narrow than my other Vans for some reason so I can't wear them to work sadly because they make my feet hurt. Should have gone up a size.

The shoes are great but the customer service needs some help. I wanted to purchase the shoes in store but they were not in sale. They were on sale for 30% offon Vans.com. I showed the cashier but he didn't know what to do. He called the manager/supervisor to help. I tried showing her the pricing on my phone but she wouldn't look at it. She went look for an iPad so she could look it up herself. Meanwhile, there are at least five other customers behind me. It took over 15 minutes to buy a pair of shoes. I think that was a bit excessive.

I love them but they are too big & it's uncomfortable to wear

My daughter wears a size 6 which allows her some wiggle room. I ordered six and a half to make sure she had room to grow in the shoes and the vans six and a half was tight on her feet!. Beware.

Nice looking shoe. But a size up and it was a mistake. Way to big. The shoe is pretty but it is TOO heavy. You won't be able to walk comfortably for too long.

Love them but they didn't match. 1 didn't have the black on the sides of the sole and 1 did. I painted it on with shoe paint. Quality control sucks!

I've worn Vans for YEARS. Never had a problem. These however only lasted 2-3 months before ripping/coming apart. Gonna try another pair though.

Love the look and the platform size, byt this is sized too big. I usually wear an 8 womens, and the slip ons in that size are slightly big, but these are way too beg even when laced tight. I will try 1/2 size smaller.

I bought a pair when they first came out in 2018 and were made with the canvas heel instead of the stiff leather heel. I bought a second pair in 2020 and only wore them a couple of times because of how stiff and uncomfortable the shoe was. I still have my old ones and love them to death but wish I could buy another pair of the old version. I've worn them a tonnnnn and I hope they bring back the original canvas design.

I love the old skool stackform shoe, they're so comfortable, but I'm disappointed that the bottom stripe (trans blue) has already come off after only 3 wears.

Owned many vans and normal break in process is easy. These are not easy, high stiff backs of shoe that gave me horrible blisters even after 7+ wears

The shoes are already tearing up at the bottom and I only wore them twice.
